I tried the timed charging a long time ago. Bad idea. If you set it to
charge overnight, for example, but need to go out in the afternoon after
a morning drive, you'll be in trouble ! That is, you have to reprogram
the damned thing each time you want to charge. There's no way (at least
that I'm aware of) to override. It's plain idiotic.

Another option, which has been useful for us, is to use the LEAF's built-in
separate timed settings for both charging and preconditioning. With those
settings an internet connection is not required.

Preconditioning, especially while charging is a fantastic benefit.
Sadly the Nissan Connect for Leaf was on 2G cellular, and there was an update
to 3G, but now that is going away as well and there seems to be no 4G LTE
upgrade.
Alternatively, people are using the OVMS to provide those functions and more
with an app.

The Leaf has an app that runs on your cellphone that can allow it to pre-heat
or pre-cool the car interior while it is plugged in. You can also set a time to
do this manually from the dash. Makes a HUGE difference in range if you can use
this feature.
Easier than defeating the heater somehow. You also _really_ need the heater
and/or air conditioning to defog the windshield. The blower alone just doesn't
do it.
